A couple of months ago I picked up a new CD by BiFrost Arts called “Come O Spirit!” Anthology Of Hymns And Spiritual Songs.‘ After listening through it a lot recently these are the ones I think are the strongest congregational songs. Also, just read that BiFrost Arts will be helping with music at David Crowder’s Fantastical Church Music Conference coming up in September. Looking forward to hearing them live!
